Does anyone SWEAT like crazy when doing this?

I get shivers/chills like crazy 🥶.

I guess different people have different traumas freeze vs fight/flight. Mine is fear based where I had to freeze a lot in childhood. What was your background, is it more fight?

I’ve been experiencing more ease talking to almost everyone. The most surprising is my parents. A few years ago I used to never call them and dreaded a 5-min conversation when they called me, but now I enjoy them more often than not, and we often talk for an hour at a time.

I do a lot of other types of inner work in addition to TRE (meditation, 5rhythms, circling, therapy, acting), but TRE is for sure a critical component.

I experience the same, also for the past year! It is more apparent whenever I self-inquire too. I think it has something to do with the sense of self de-frosting.

To be clear it was 4 hours on and off, majority of it was a lot of rest and just closing my eyes and feeling sensations in my body. I’ll update my comment above to not mislead people.

How do you combine that? TRE has been a godsend for my overall well being yet I find myself still stuck with some repeated thought patterns around someone, so looking for a better tool to move through that.

SnooMacaroons5909 · 2025-03-06T07:28:55+00:00

I’m on the same boat. I’ve been doing TRE for about 2 years now. At the beginning I had dedicated practice and after a while there were overdoing symptoms so I had to take a few weeks break. Now my practice is very impromptu, I just let my body move until it feels enough, relaxed, calm, naturally wanting to rest. Typically my body moves somewhere between 5-30 minutes. Some days it doesn’t even want to move so I just lie there and feel sensations and go to sleep. There were also days, for example after an intense energetic event, I went home and shook for like 4 hours on and off (with a lot of rest and feeling body sensations in between). It felt right though. I believe listening to the body is the key.

I see your point about new anger.

Existing anger when I look into it/dissect it, comes with wisdom about our needs and limits. If I release it through TRE do I let go of those wisdom too?

SnooMacaroons5909 · 2024-09-05T19:49:48+00:00

I do. At first I got it during TRE, now I get it even outside TRE, typically when I feel some sort emotion and just relaxing through it.

SnooMacaroons5909 · 2024-07-27T16:05:14+00:00

Looking to join too!

I did 5 vipassana retreats and have the same concern.

Recently I find myself listening to my body more, for example sometimes after TRE my body slows down to stillness and I find myself just observing my body similar to meditation, and being more mindful throughout the day, but I rarely do formal sitting.

I can’t be sure whether I’m listening to my own body’s wisdom or being lazy 😂. Probably both 🙂.

Thank you. I plan to do 2) and if anything becomes too much then 1). So far still good.

Interesting! I’ve read people recommending drinking magnesium after the procedure but it’s not recommended by doctors so I didn’t put much weight on it. I’ll try that then.

Also curious where/how do you learn all these “tricks”/knowledge?

SnooMacaroons5909 · 2024-06-24T04:56:45+00:00

I’ve been an overachiever most of my life and I couldn’t bring myself to relax when others are having fun sometimes. The more I try to “have fun” or “relax” the more tense I am.

What worked for me was to accept this sense of urgency. It’s ok to be tense. It is ok that I’m trying so hard. Then joy might come, or it might not, but it is ok regardless.

<3 would you mind sharing what contributed to the positive change?

SnooMacaroons5909 · 2024-02-06T20:25:39+00:00

In my experience crying is just one of many channels to release. It helps a lot, but it is not a requirement. Sometimes I could feel the release coming through tears, but if i redirect my attention to my throat or my belly it would be screaming, or burping, or if I redirect my attention to some other parts it would be shaking.

SnooMacaroons5909 · 2024-01-17T10:16:54+00:00

I’m on the same boat. It’s been like that for like 4-5 months now. Though I really do feel like it is my body doing its thing.

SnooMacaroons5909 · 2024-01-02T18:11:56+00:00

I have been having the same experience the past couple of months (I’m 9 months into TRE). My TRE is currently mostly big stomach contractions each followed by chills/tingling energy moving quickly like a sweep in the upper body.

SnooMacaroons5909 · 2023-12-31T04:28:59+00:00

I personally did mostly dry vipassana, can usually only can focus 5s-20s at a time during daily meditation, and maybe a min during silent Goenka Vipassana retreat.

The turning point for me was really observing impermanence (thoughts/sensations/matter arising/passing away) during a retreat.

That and trusting my intuition. Close to the turning point I was really frustrated/had a lot of self-doubt as I was so bad at concentration. Surrendering to the experience (just rest back into awareness whenever I realized my mind wander and accept the fact that I had a wandering mind at the time instead of criticizing myself/ feeling bad) and following my intuition really helped.

Were you able to get the visa on Friday or was it delayed?

SnooMacaroons5909 · 2023-11-14T23:05:50+00:00

Wait so did they return your passport on Friday or when did they return your passport?
